Game balancing

[Katastrophe]

I think we should look at it before the update.

Scallywags, Adorables and Feedback were all fairly balanced. I think it might be safe to say that the Bombshell had a pretty nice advantage, if any advantage could be given. The hit and run tactic was doable, but the bonus Wit made it far more viable. However, I think Adorables and Scallywags is fairly balanced, despite the numbers. I think the issue lies in players not yet having changed styles. In the previous version, Scallywag players could turtle until the end of time and the more time they were given to do so, the more powerful they became. Now, it seem's like there's a point in the game where the Adorable's strength as time goes on surpasses Scallywags.

To throw in a StarCraft 2 reference, it's sort of like Zerg vs Protoss. Protoss have incredibly strong units, but don't make a lot. Zerg are stronger in numbers and a lot of times, there's a big engagement, they trade armies, and the only reason the Zerg can win is because they can mass up their army again. So there becomes this critical point where if you let the Zerg "macro" too much that they become unstoppable.

So to bring it back, I feel like Scallywags have an advantage earlier on, but as the game goes longer, Adorables become more powerful faster, and eventually surpass the Scallywags. A lot of players seem to be so used to turtling that they're letting the Adorables "macro" up until they're unstoppable. The fault isn't in game balance, but rather the fact that a lot of players are still in a transition phase and trying to find where that tipping point is.

Feedback I think remains balanced and shouldn't be touched.

The largest issue appears to be the Veggienauts which is the only army that has no real method of countering Bombshell. Mobi's can be brambled or otherwise dealt with. Scramblers can be scouted and otherwise dealt with. Bombshell has 4 HP and can be dealt with, but hardly directly. SvV is still a gametype where Scallywags can just sit back and win.
